anodien Posted January 25 Posted January 25 (edited) Hi everyone! 👋 I just joined because I promised my 13-year-old nephew that I’d help him build a LEGO forest, and I really want to get it right! I’m planning to buy loose pieces and need advice on what to include. The main idea is a forest with around 20 trees (he wants to create a forest for his Harry Potter Legos, just so you know the style I need), but I’d love suggestions for anything that makes it look and feel natural, like: Different tree parts (trunks, leaves, branches) Bushes, moss, grass elements Rocks or boulders/building pieces Ground details (flowers, vines, logs, stumps) I’m completely new to picking specific parts, so it would be awesome if you could recommend specific LEGO part IDs or names and quantities of each (so the forest doesn’t look too sparse or too busy)! TIA for the help! Can’t wait to hear your suggestions! 😊 Edited January 25 by anodien Found a typo! Quote
SpacePolice89 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 It's easy to build trees. You just need brown or black pieces and some green ones. they are very easy to upscale or downscale. In the pictures below are some examples of brick built and one piece trees. You'll find all the pieces you need in the PAB section of Lego Shop at Home. Quote
1963maniac Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Look up "trees" on Rebrickable. Pick the ones you like and order the parts needed. Quote
Yoggington Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Depends on what sort of size trees you are looking for. Check out BrickSculpt on YouTube. He has a whole playlist based around trees here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFk5FsN0JvIlppemQOiiWjCWB99FVNQdG He usually lists off the part IDs, so once you find some styles you like you can chase the pieces yourself.

Yperio_Bricks Posted January 28 Posted January 28 If you are interested in sets, set 21365 is on shelves right now and features a very nice tree. Actually one of the best trees I have seen in an official Lego set so far. I plan to get this set for the parts. Quote
